In Topic: Anyone use a bandana/buff/sungaiter?

14 May 2015 - 11:03 AM

Had this problem last year.  Collared shirt made of light cotton, with long sleeves that can be rolled up.  Bandana, a brimmed hat (Tilley with the snaps) and a pair of blue jeans.  Not too hot when on the water.


In Topic: Vest vs Hip-pack

14 May 2015 - 10:54 AM

Hey guys don't know about you but with several different types of fishing I've been doing, I'm having a hard time finding the right way to store gear and tackle... Wanted to hear some opinions from you guys: I wade and fish from the bank, river-fishing only, and find myself juggling several different types of tackle, transferring tackle from vests, to a tackle bag, to my waders' pocket, depending on the area I'm fishing and type of fishing I'm doing. Half the time I've got my crap strewn across the bank and could forget or damage something... What do you guys like to use and why? Have you found a well-balanced way to keep all your tackle on or nearby you that works in many scenarios? I know this is a pretty open-ended vague question, but any opinions would help out.

 

 

Depends how you like to roll.  If you wade, a cheap light cotton vest is a good way to go.  Dropped $15 at BPS for mine.  No frills.  Just pockets with zippers.

 

The other way to go,particularly if you walk along the banks and do some shallow crossing in hip/boots, a hip-pack is good too.  This is what I use in the middle of summer when the creeks are low and I'm just wading through knee deep water.  Think I dropped $40 at Cabela's and so far has been indestructible.

 

Both options should hold all the gear you need for stream fishing.

Is the Mojo Bass spinnerbait rod still available?

 

All rods and reels are no longer available, but still appreciate the interest.

Not bad at all!

 

 

The weather (high atmospheric pressure, etc) can play into it too. Some days they agressive enough to hit on short pauses, in some weather fronts, you could be counting to thirty or 45 for your pauses.
